I’ve been at UoN for 6 years now, from BSc to (hopefully) PhD. It’s a fantastic uni and one of the best cities to be a student in. Having said that the first 2 months were easily some of the worst of my life, very tough settling in, campus halls aren’t in blocks so its a bit tougher to adjust and meet people easily. I broke up with my then gf too, but like your experience it really helps you in an odd way to bed in with your new mates. 5 years later, I can honestly say sticking it out was more than worth it. To all those worried about this september, just stick with it!
I'm at Nottingham University and going into my second year now. I absolutely love it. Good luck to all you freshers and hope you all have a good one 😊
should i apply to nothingam for my bachler chemical engineering
thank you for this vid! i went to the open day on friday and i'm def going to include it in my five choices. can see where you're coming from with the layering advice as was exhausted after trekking around all day haha but it's a beautiful campus. best of luck for your second year!
Casey thank you so much!! Omg amazing, I agree the campus is beautiful that was one of my main reasons for choosing it! I hope we see you next year maybe potentially😊
I'm considering going to Nottingham, this video definitely makes it seem like a better choice than my other ones ahahah
you gave such a glowing review of nottingham that I'm actually looking forward to uni! lovely video :)
awwh that makes me so happy! Thank you so so much!:)
thanks so much for your honesty in this video, so helpful !
Thank you so so much! x
i'm going to uon for a semester as an exchange program thingy and i'm so excited!! i'd love to see a video on what to do in nottingham / a tour around the city / night life in nottingham haha
Heey lovely! I recently made a video called top 10 things to do in Nottingham czcams.com/video/fJBnFZvMPFc/video.html - but I would love to do videos specifically on the other two as well, thank you!!:)

Lili Stephens hey babe, oooh exciting congrats! Defo say hi if you see me😊 thank you so much💓
Lili Stephens ayyyy me too let’s go
How do you already have a place
hi friend how are you
Such a relatable video such fab tips, can’t relate to not being kept up sometimes on Campus 😂💓xx
Georgia Lauren Birch thank you love💓 omg I’ve heard stories about being on campus loool😂😂
Omg uni is so lonely yeah! I go to Notts and love it but it’s hard to begin with. It only gets better as you go though
I’m starting at Nottingham university this year hopefully if the situation gets better. One thing that I would like to ask you is “What kind of a crowd you have in your university and the students are more into the studies or they are just hanging around in the uni”?
A bit of both! There are all different kinds of people - that's the beauty of university :)
Even I am planning to start at Nottingham.....Have you started yet??
Very good video, I’m going to Notts uni in September and quite nervous hence why I’m watching this at 2am 😂 but thanks for the helpful video cheers 🥂
I’m going to uni of Leeds to study English lit and I’m very nervous but excited, your videos have been so helpful :)
Katie Warrior

Z B aww mint thank you good luck to you also! X
hey babe, aw thank you so much! Congratulations and I hope you have the best time x
how is english at leeds? i’m going this september x
I have graduated from UoN and I miss my uni so much.
I'm wort about the elective in the second year. It seems stressful to organise?
hi!! I’m starting here in sept and am staying in broadgate. Kinda worried with the reviews. Do you know what the large standard rooms are like?? x
Hiyaa I love your vids 👏 I'm starting uni this year and have applied to nottingham haven't got an offer yet but I've had to fill in my fee status on mynottingham account. Is this normal?
Hi! How many students typically per shared kitchen at Uni of Nottingham? Is this the same as the No. of students per flat? Thanks
Moving to Notts tomorrow and I’m so anxious... don’t know anyone, not really in group chats either... and I have a studio so I don’t have a shared kitchen (where everyone usually meets everyone)... like I got some freshers tickets but I don’t wanna go alone sooo might have to throw it away ahaha...
Make sure you go out to the events and maybe knock on a few doors and introduce yourself - don't throw them away!
What about Sports Facilities in Nottingham university? I am coming this year and very excited :)
Hey Ella!!! I had no idea you went to Notts too ☺️ I really appreciate you making this and talking about your loneliness during freshers 💕have you been asked to join the digi ambassador team yet? Basically the people who make vids for the uni YT channel. See you end of September :-)
Hey lovely! Thank you so much that’s so sweet💓 dm me on Instagram x
How soon do you have to find a 2nd year house? Thank you :)
Hi, new here. Might be doing my MA English there. Reviews for jow the department is?? How are the professors?
Hiya, what would be the best accommodation for freshers? As I am not sure but I know that I want somewhere lively and social. Thank you
If you want to be super social, I would recommend catered halls! Although, I was in Broadgate park and defo was still able to be social. Just depends what kind of experience you are after x
What time do the uni hopper busses stop running at??and do they run during weekends??
I'm not sure, I know it's very late! You might be able to check on the university website x
I have an interview at notts tomorrow wish me luck 😭
What’s the name of the song you used in the beginning?
So how was your interview?
@@malkiatsandhu6169 She died
is u of nottingham good for pharmacology?
Is the personal tutor paid???
I'm going to the Nottingham Trent uni and I'm sooo nervous because I don't know much of the people who are going there 😭 I'm so scared
A Google Account heey! Congratulations you must be so excited💓 I was really nervous too before I went, but literally within a few hours the nerves go once you meet the people you’re living with and see your room n stuff - I hope it goes well!! X
literally half my sixth from is already there (i took an art foundation course so I was a year late) but i'm only friends with one girl lmfao. i'm quiet and a slight introvert so it takes me AGES to make a friend. i'm scared lol
Heyy you mentioned that you lived at broadgate park... Was planning on choosing it, is it good??
I loved it!❤️❤️
Wow you went to your first Crisis in Spring Semester? I went to almost every single one in Autumn Semester!
They're amazing!
Im thinking of studying nutrition on the sutton bonnington campus but a bit worried its isolated from main campus?
Hannah Stewart hey babe, I’ve never been to Sutton bonington but I believe it is about 20-30 mins away from the main campus. I think they have a lot of their own bars and clubs n stuff but I know people who still travel on to the main campus for societies and club nights🤷🏼♀️ dm me on insta x
U idiot. Y tf u wanna study nutrition?? Ull stay poor. Study business
Hannah Stewart
I study Agriculuture and business management and stay at SB. It’s about 15-20 minutes from University park campus (main campus). There’s a free bus every 30mins mon-Fri going to the main campus, tram at Clifton south that goes into the city about £2.30 I think all day travel. We actually go clubbing but to come back people normally take taxis ( overtime you can make friends that stay in the city and stay over it’s fun!)
But overall put yourself out there take time to get know people join societies you’ll meet loads of people that way. I’ve gone overboard but it’s not that bad.. whatever campus you’re on it’s what you make it
Abdullah Khabib you do realise Nutrition opens up so many jobs.. why be so rude?
What was your age when you did foundation year?
I've never done a foundation year, my first year was when I was 18 x
3:00 sorta scared abt feeling lonely, esp cause im introverted and also international, but I thibk I wanna go nottingham
GO FOR IT!❤️
i was so close
I didn’t make it into Nottingham 😭
I got lucky I did, where are you going? 😂
It's fine there are plenty of options, what's your next move :)
I am applying for cheavning scholarship and I would love to know about somethings , may I get any hellp
It's okay! There are always more options! Have you thought about clearing or retakes?
What are you studying?
English 🤍
me before this video: yeah I don't know if I want to go to uni...
me after this video : OKAY LET'S DO THIS FKJJJFZPJE
I'm here basically only due to Computerphile
Do uk anyone that went Raleigh park? If so, how was their experience?
Yes I do, I think overall they had a good experience although it's not that close to University Park campus compared to the other accommodations so some people said they felt a little excluded x
RUTLAND TIL I DIE X
I want to be your friend
The best professor is obviously Sir Martyn Poliakoff
Love Poliakoff!
Im a foundation student in UON in malaysia😇
Skyyy Fizz Omg amazing!!❤️
